Put the tensioner back in and remove the alternator cover and turn the engine anti clockwise and you may hear the tensioner click into place as it takes up the chain slack. Post a picture of the original tensioner you removed before putting it back in.
It is most likely a stretched cam chain and tensioner is at the end of it adjustment. The best way to check for a worn chain is to remove the cam cover and see if all three timing marks line up. two on the cams and one on the rotor. If they don't line up correctly then the chain is worn.


its just had a brand new chain, still rattlesĀ  Sad
